Oh yeah! A brand new 4-Runner (Insurance write-off) turned into my do-it-all ATV workhorse.

plow looks light, home-made out of aluminum?

No, its solid steel... I've welded it all myself. A great project for me to get into welding and learn some new skills. I live out in the bush and have a long driveway I need to keep ploughed, my monster does a pretty good job.

Dude, funny you ask. I had some cold times after ploughing 10km in -25° weather... only thing that keeps me going is a stiff drink and my iPod.

I've been to Pemberton.... love that little town. Good restaurant/cafe there too, remember they had bike mags laying around. I go through there on my way to Whistler coming from the North. I also like to camp just outside of Pemberton when I ride in Whistler, good provincial campground. ID is not bad either, just saw pics of the bikepark you guys are building... there was a right-up about it in Bike Magazine.

No, it's a Toyota 4-Runner. Was an insurance write-off. Someone rolled it and I've cut off the roof.

Really not very much. I've bought the 4-Runner as an insurance write-off for less than $1,600. Had to get tires for it and bought the winch. The metal for the plough is all scrap from the dump. Oh and I've bough the yellow, revolving/flashing light.
